I understand and assume you're Jim. I turned 70 and had a garden nearly every year except when on active duty/Army Vietnam-era @ Ft.Lewis WA..organic since 1975, even if a small plot. Got a Troy-Bilt back when..but they don't make 'em like they once did. But have leukemia, and terrible back lumbago pain, and have been doing mostly digging/burying leaves/garbage/grass clippings, and couldn't do it w/ back issues. Will be praying for your health to get back to your garden! You have red soil..we have a bit in Southern Ohio..I gardened near Tyler TX and seasons are SO DIFFERENT. Blessings to you and yours..CHRISTMAS is Special to make each New Year blessed!
